With Wichita State leaving and Valpo joining, that means the "travel partner" arrangement (that is used for vb I know, and possibly other womens sports) will have to be adjusted.

Valpo's closest conference-mate is Loyola, about a 60 mile drive. (Loyola is currently partnered with Bradley, which is about a 172 mile trip)Bradley could then be partnered with Illinois State, 41 miles away. (ILS current partner, Indiana State - 142 miles)Indiana State could then be paired with Evansville (111 miles). (UE currently with SIU, 103 miles)

The main problem is that no one is close to Missouri State. Their closest conference-mate is now Southern Illinois, which is 300 miles away, which equates to a 5 hour trip.
